(a-c ii) The Register of Government Boards and Committees was placed on the website of the Department of the Premier and Cabinet on 8 November 2012 following its tabling in the Legislative Assembly on that same day. It can be found under the section "consultation" on this website. The Register lists each Minister's portfolio, the names of the boards and committees under that portfolio and the total number of boards and committees in the portfolio.
The information is updated regularly based on board appointments approved by Government. The Department of the Premier and Cabinet is currently examining improvements to the website database.
